The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) will start the de-silting of Digmala River here to help address the perennial flooding problem in low-lying parts of this province, as well as neighboring areas of Pampanga and Bulacan. District Engineer Ricardo Puno said this will be in compliance with the directive of DPWH Regional Director Roseller A. Tolentino, who made rounds of the provinces in the region to assess the effects of flooding brought about by the weather disturbances last month. Digmala River is one of the allied rivers and tributaries of the 260-kilometer Pampanga River that traverses the provinces of Nueva Ecija, Bulacan and Pampanga.
